| If you were to give me forty such
men, I never could be so happy as you. Till I have your
disposition, your goodness, I never can have your
happiness. |

& Prejudice Chapter 55 |

Mr. Wickeby |
| Age:
27 |
Height:
5'10" |
| Eyes:
Blue |
Weight:
163 |
| Hair:
Brown |
|
Bio:
Mr. Wickeby is a charming officer in the
shire militia. His appearance is greatly in
his favor. He has all the best part of
beauty: a fine countenance, a good figure,
and a very pleasing address.
"It is wonderful for almost all his [Mr.
Darcy's] actions may be traced to pride; and
pride had often been his best friend. It has
connected him nearer with virtue than with
any other feeling. But we are none of us
consistent, and in his behavior to me there
were stronger impulses even than pride."

Colonel Brandon |
| Age:
35 |
Height:
5'10" |
| Eyes:
Blue |
Weight:
168 |
| Hair:
Red |
|
Bio:
Colonel Brandon is a friend of the Lucas
family. He is silent and grave and has a
properly aged face, as someone on the wrong
side of five and thirty should have. Though
his face is not handsome, his countenance is
sensible, and his address is particularly
gentlemanlike.
"There is something so amiable in the
prejudices of a young mind, that one is
sorry to see them give way to the reception
of more general opinions." |

Mr. Darcy |
| Age:
28 |
Height:
6'1" |
| Eyes:
Brown |
Weight:
185 |
| Hair:
Black |
|
Bio:
Though Mr. Darcy has handsome features and a
noble mien, his actions have shown him to be
proud, above his company, and above being
pleased. Not even his large estate in
Derbyshire can make up for his most
forbidding and disagreeable countenance.
"I certainly have not the talent which some
people possess of conversing easily with
those I have never seen before. I cannot
catch their tone of conversation, or appear
interested in their concerns, as I often see
done." |

| Eyes:
Green |
Weight:
165 |
| Hair:
Blonde |
|
Bio:
Mr. Bingley is good-looking and has a
pleasant countenance with easy, unaffected
manners. He values the same characteristics
in others that can be found in himself and
is moved by simple and consistent goodness
without any signs of hypocrisy or guile.
"I never met with so many pleasant girls in
my life as I have this evening; and there
are several of them you see uncommonly
pretty." |

Mr. Collins |

Brown |
Weight:
203 |
| Hair:
Brown |
|
Bio:
Mr. Collins is a tall, heavy-looking young
man of five-and-twenty. His air is grave and
stately, and his manners are very formal. He
has come to Longbourn with the specific
intent of marrying.
"I am very sensible, madam, of the hardship
to my fair cousins, and could say much on
the subject, but that I am cautious of
appearing forward and precipitate. But I can
assure the young ladies that I come prepared
to admire them. At present I will not say
more; but, perhaps, when we are better
acquainted -" |

"I could not derive benefit from the
late knowledge I had acquired of your
character. I could not bring it into play;
it was overwhelmed, buried, lost in those
earlier feelings which I had been smarting
under year after year. I could think of you
only as one who had yielded, who had given
me up, who had been influenced by any one
rather than by me." |
